How is a Continental glacier different from a valley glacier How are they the same?
you have to use toure brian not search it
Is the Tasman glacier continental glacier or valley glacier?
The Tasman Glacier is a valley glacier. It is located in the Southern Alps of New Zealand and flows down the Tasman Valley. Valley glaciers form in mountainous regions and flow along valleys carved by rivers.
What are two different kinds of glacier and how are they different?
Continental and Valley Glaciers.
How do glaciers move for 6th grade?
A continental glacier can move in all directions and a valley glacier can move in a surge. :)
What are the 3 kinds of glaciers?
1. Mountain/Valley Glacier 2. Piedmont Glacier 3. Continental ice-sheets
Which part of valley glacier moves the fastest?
The center of a valley glacier moves the fastest due to reduced friction from surrounding valley walls and terrain. This faster flow in the center can cause the glacier to stretch and crack, creating crevasses.
Are continental glaciers larger than valley glaciers?
Yes. A continental glacier spreads around all sides, while the valley glaciers spread along it's length.
Does a valley glacier cover cover much of the island of Greenland?
Yes, Greenland is covered by an ice sheet, not a valley glacier. The Greenland Ice Sheet is one of the largest ice sheets in the world and covers about 80% of the island's surface. Valley glaciers are smaller glaciers that form in mountain valleys.
A valley glacier spreads out over a large island or continent. true or false?
True. A valley glacier is typically confined to a valley and flows down from mountainous regions, while a glacier that spreads out over a large area, covering much of an island or continent, is known as a continental glacier or ice sheet. Examples of this include the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets.
How are continental glacier and valley glaciers similar?
Continental and valley glaciers both develop in regions where there is constant snowfall and freezing temperatures throughout the year. Both types of glaciers move at a very slow pace.
Is furtwangler glacier a continental glacier?
It is apline glacier
Does a valley glacier spread out over a large island or continent?
Valley glaciers typically flow down valleys and do not spread out over large islands or continents. They are confined to the topography of the land and move under the influence of gravity. Ice sheets, on the other hand, can cover large landmasses like islands and continents.
